>>Some boats do have speakers in the front.<<

Yes, newer Moorings 40, 48, Sunsail 44s that we chartered (all w front doors and porches) have forward speaker sets.

Bluetooth speaker are so easy and cheap for your own music on the tramp. Ive still got a 10 yo iPod loaded w music that i use only when cruising. Premium Pandora allows downloading - though I haven't used it yet.
